fastapi-cache

Introduction

fastapi-cache is a tool to cache fastapi response and function result, with backends support redis and memcache.

Features

• Support redis and memcache .
• Easily integration with fastapi.
• Support http cache like ETag and Cache-Control.

Requirements

• asyncio environment.
• redis if use RedisBackend.
• memcache if use MemcacheBackend.

Install

> pip install fastapi-cache2[redis]

or

> pip install fastapi-cache2[memcache]

Usage

Quick Start

import aioredis
import uvicorn
from fastapi import FastAPI
from starlette.requests import Request
from starlette.responses import Response

from fastapi_cache import FastAPICache
from fastapi_cache.backends.redis import RedisBackend
from fastapi_cache.decorator import cache_response, cache

app = FastAPI()


@cache()
async def get_cache():
    return 1


@app.get("/")
@cache_response(expire=60)
async def index(request: Request, response: Response):
    return dict(hello="world")


@app.on_event("startup")
async def startup():
    redis = await aioredis.create_redis_pool("redis://localhost", encoding="utf8")
    FastAPICache.init(RedisBackend(redis), prefix="fastapi-cache")

Use cache_response

If you want cache fastapi response transparently, you can use cache_response as decorator between router decorator and view function and must pass request as param of view function.

And if you want use ETag and Cache-Control features, you must pass response param also.

Use cache

You can use cache as decorator like other cache tools to cache common function result.
